Hello everyone, this is Ross McDonnell, director of Swift Justice, a film about Sharia Law under the Taliban. Thank you for watching. We visited Helmand province in the aftermath of the Taliban takeover to see how the Islamic Sharia Court system was functioning at the village level for Afghans, what their issues were and crucially what role women had in the courts when they came to look for justice. We're here to feedback and answer your questions over the next couple of days. Enjoy the film.
It’s quite bizarre the fact that you showed how the court fairly decide she has her own freedom of choice to marry or not but at the end there’s a summary of women not having basic “human rights”
@omalbakhtiari2269 no, the majority of us Afghans support Taliban and our Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan government and security forces now, and even city people prefer these Taliban courts.
@@phoenixrising8640I feel the Taliban learned many lessons and actually try to look after the people now unlike how they came into power after civil war.

I was on the edge of my seat watching this and I was praying that she was not going to be forced to live with that despot, I cheered loudly when they told her she was allowed to live with her father a massive relief

I haven't been in Afghanistan, but i spent 5 years in Pakistan and they have lot of similarity in northern region... So the brother in law wanted two things: 1- the tribal will sht talk his family if he didnt marry her or let her leave the house example "how you let her leave the house, shame on your family". 2- if the husband had lands he want that. Its never about sharia, its all about Tribal law. these people are SO ignorant they dont even speak Arabic to understand the law. this is my take about the whole thing even in other middle eastern countries run by tribal families.

A lot of violation against women still exist in afghanistan, but a lot of them are influenced by their custom. Sharia takes no part in those violation, but sadly it's still exist
Sharia clearly says that a woman can refuse marriage and she should be marry according to her desire or choice. She has inheritance rights which shows Sharia wants her to be able to have money and live freely. Of course while dressing modestly and not engaging in illicit relationships

@@saudfaisal239 This is part of what they try to do. Cover a simple matter in confusion and obfuscate something that is clear. Delay, Deny, Defend. I am really impressed by what I see here. A case like this would take at least 1 month in Canada where I live where simply all that is required is the testimony of the people involved and some witnesses. The most important witness is the wife and she has already spoken. Case closed. Alihamdulilah.
@@tomiwa1a Are you stupid? In Canada this 'case' would never reach the point where it appears before a court. I can also guarantee that the judge isn't going to beat a confession out of you.
Did they solve them though? I didn’t hear any evidence just very unveiled threats of beating and one guy physically getting whipped until they presumably confess. And in the woman’s case her autonomy wouldn’t even be brought into question in the west lol
Cases also took a very long in the court system of the previous government and also involved bribery often. That is why some people living in areas under the control of the previous government and their justice system, would go to Taliban courts in Taliban controlled areas to get their cases resolved quickly.
Captions are not acurate. They said women should coperate(live in unity) with husbands not "obey" husbands entirely as husband may command something immoral, etc..
Thank you, the original translation was upsetting as that is clearly not Islam as defined by the Quran and the example of the Prophet Muhammad. Your translation is inline, which makes one wonder if the mistranslation was done intentionally.
Yeah, I just love the no due process. The part where evidence doesn't matter at all and verdicts are rendered based on a judge's emotions alone. What a great system.
In “civilised” nations, the process of obtaining justice is itself a punishment. It can take years of gruelling court proceedings and a fortune in money to resolve disputes, wading through Kafkaesque bureaucracies and incomprehensible legal jargon. This means that the mechanisms of justice are not available to the underprivileged people who can’t afford lawyers who can navigate the system on their behalf. Thus, law becomes another tool for the powerful to keep their inferiors down. Whether or not you agree with the actual values, principles and laws of the Taliban, it’s nice to see an accessible way of doing justice.
@coolbuddydude1 have you ever been charged in a court of law under US law ? For example say you had a fight on the street and instead the next guy charges you for assault ?
I deployed to Afghanistan for all of 2007 and spent considerable time around Afghans in their villages. I have a great admiration for their culture, despite it being so opposite of my own American culture. The producers did a phenomenal job bringing to life places, sights, and sounds I once was immersed in. This is a great documentary that touches at the heart of Afghan culture and what it’s all about.
I agree, very nice cinematography. They let the people speak mostly except when they ended it off with the "women are not given human rights" lol. The Judge was explaining that the Wests idea of human rights doesn't align with the human rights Islam gives. Classic orientalism.
@umbrellastudio7481 you're the clown here, because if you did see the video you would realize that's exactly what the judge said when he said the choice is up to the woman.
One doesn't need to be a genius to discern the bias evident in this channel. The selected music creates a Resident Evil atmosphere, and the manipulation of people's emotions and perspective through strategic montage is insanely dishonest. What a shame.
Very interesting and if only one word comes to mind then that is - RESPECT, because as quoted as such: "Every country has a body of laws and a way of living". This is so important to understand. Thank you for this video.
yes and no - a society is not a static entity, making it about a "way of living" ignores the fact that the Taliban are a specific political force who enforced this specific court system through violent means
I've been twice a defendant in Sharia courts in the Middle East, once defending the interests of my company and the other time, personally, following a minor car accident. In both cases, I had to swallow my logic and pride and take a loss with a small "l" rather than risk a big "L" on appeal. On the plus side, it was quick and cheap (no lawyers), and the fine was miniscule.
Islamic law is based on Logic and Justice and wisdom and I don't know exactly what type of court you are talking about where you have to swallow your logic
@@meeraakif6192it only makes sense in an islamic context it's ok for islamic tradition to influence legislation which is the case in many muslim majority countries but to use sharia as an unwavering standard is a different story.. but i'm not an islamist so it'd be surprising if i thought otherwise 🤷
@@kim-o-san Small "L" and big "L". A small L looks the same as the letter "I", (like this l - I) an "L" stands for loss, so taking a small "L" means taking a small loss as opposed to a big loss (Big L)
@@bandeano3870which is more than any western woman is privileged to. Alhamdulillah Islam honours and protects women, the fathers and brothers don't abandon them to the streets. ThankGod for Islam! No wonder more western women are coming to Islam than even the men. Check the stats
@@SK-ns6sl some people believe their own lies, and you are clearly one of them. There has never been a time in the history of Islam where there have been so many people leaving the faith and calling themselves ex-Muslims. 50 to 60 years ago there were no ex-Muslims, today there are millions. avalanche of apostacy
@@SK-ns6sl "honored and protected" you mean beatings, intimidation, threats, control, complete domination over women. I have several female and male friends who were raised in a Muslim family and we have talked about it in private. The only reasons why they pretend that they are still following Islam is because of their parents or family members. Islam is crumbling, little by little. you can thank the internet for that, people's eyes are opening. And you can pretend it doesn't happen, but deep down you know I'm telling the truth. Even in Saudi Arabia and Iran people throw Qurans into the sewer. in the country where "everyone" is Muslim and where Islam originated. how is that possible? Kafirs in the "holy" land?
I wish we had courts like them. In order to file a case against someone, you must pay a lawyer’s fees and you must wait a long time for the judge to rule.
I guess one man's justice is another adult woman's being forced to cover their body and face with fabric their entire life, and rely on the defense of a father in court rather than being handed off to her dead husbands brother to be raped and tortured. Just for the record, if this woman's father was dead - do you really think the Taliban would allow her to live on her own? If so, with what money would she even be able to support them?
I like how even though the brother in law is clearly in the wrong according to Sharia law, the judges took their time and listened to both sides of the story. To me that is a sign of wisdom.
@@bruhno1545 LOl they are developing infra structure and try to run the country and all you people have issues with minor problem which they have said multiple times will resolve once bigger issues regarding economy are resolved. USA has siezed the dollars and what not. welcome to real world. getting food to belly is more of a priority than education. Once basic life necessaties are addressed than education can resume.
I was thinking the same thing. People really don't know how easy they have it in the West. It's unfortunate that those who complain about the freedoms and opportunities available to them within their civilised Western culture don't consider moving to other countries with cultures that better suit their interests and needs.
Very beautifully filmed and very special for such an insight into how Taliban/Sharia law works. For me as a Westerner it is unimaginable. Everything in this film is at odds with how we experience democracy in our part of the world.
Another religious fool that rally thinks that there is some kind of creator that is going to hand pick a murderous medieval warlord to be the final messenger for ‘his’ word in only one language, blah blah blah. Mohamed was psychotic he h3rd voices. Nowadays he wou.d be treated with antipsychotics, that is Al there is. No special message. In my clinics I see these messengers all the time, it’s a bog standard psychotic symptom, not special in any way. Time to face actual reality no medieval nonsense
Real justice done for the harassed women to live freely with her children and father. My salutes to Sharia law. The Sharia court well said that : "Women ( widow ) is NOT the commodity of inheritance"
oil country threw a tantrums and stole money rightfully theirs when Afghanistan didn't stay under their paid politicians. That's why he's on a mattress
Every talking about how fairly she was treated is insane. The fact that she had to go to court at all, to have to fight in a legal battle over who she gets to live with is testament to the tailians opression of women.
In Western countries wife living with boyfriend is allowed and the wife will also get alimony for it. In Islam the person with whom the woman will live has to bare every responsibility of the woman so it needs to be taken seriously.
Dude seriously ??? Have you like ? Seen what's up with women in the western nations ? Constant leering and cat calling. The woman here took him to court for a similar reason. He never stopped telling her to marry him. Probably because of the inheritance she got but regardless.
@@JohnSmith-cq6jn qatar, uae, saudi,Oman,Kuwait,bahrain etc are all islamic countries. Do you feel like you are in the past when you travel there. For 95% of islamic history muslim nations were either the superpower or one of the superpowers of the world eg - rashidun Caliphate,abbasid Caliphate,ummayad caliphate, ottoman empire etc. It is only in the modern time that muslim nations are no longer a superpower.
Marriage is not a small thing or a joke in Islam. It's a big responsibility which requires patience acceptance love trust care understanding principles justice
Once Afghanistan was a first world country. Everybody in the world wants to be their citizen so much that pregnant women go on visiting visa to give birth there . Then i woke up 😂😂😂😂
but how would you prove that that testimony was false? without cameras, documentation (receipts, tickets, and so on) everything relies on eyewitness accounts. And eyewitness accounts usually are not very trustworthy.
@@timecode37 when 8 people who dont know eachother claim to have saw the samething u dont need evidence. Also your thinking is wrong it should be how could u prove the testimony is true thats the point of sharia law u cant just accuse someone unless their are multiple witnesses or incriminating evidence. Also it doesnt give any advanttages to the rich everyone gets a fair trial
@JDG-hq8gy so would oppression mean her being forced to marry someone? Ofcourse not. The statement at the end was indeed contradictory to what the ruling was
@@zutella22the text wasn't about the ruling it was about their continued oppression despite the "positive" ruling. Not to mention the ruling wouldn't even be necessary if they weren't living in the stone age in the first place
I appreciate this is an honest piece-not sensationalized. Certainly different, but it is a system of justice. Very communal and seems focused on solving a problem. The hardest part is the he-said/he-said arguments: He stole my land! No, I didn’t…
They favoured her father. She's not a person to them. She's the equivalent of an audio recording or some other palpable proof. They only asked her because she's there and she's proof. And I would be curious to see that same verdict in the absence of cameras. In a justice system where the judge holds all the power - and there's no forensics, no jury, no nothing else, verdicts must vary wildly. It's all at his whim, basically.
@@Laranti typical of br4inw4shed wsterner hhhh. acting c00l by talking about proof.. but you yourself dont have proof and acused them to think of her as a non person . hhhhhhh go back to your b4rabraic country, western c0l0n1zer

Afghanistan It’s a beautiful graveyard for empires, my friend. New Yorker should thank Taliban for letting them in. USA still has Afghanistans money frozen in federal reserves. The fact that westerners Zionists try to oppose sharia law is because it’s against their interests. Women rights are an excuse to keep Taliban being hated by people who follow the mainstream media. you don’t hear media tell you: Even though USA has sanctioned and frozen most of Afghan assets, still Afghan currency did better than US dollar recently.
A 100 years ago in my village in Morocco, things were like that. People would meet in regional weekly souk (market) and discuss their cases; when they can't agree they take it to tribe leader. The tribe leader is a person who pledges allegiance to the king and controls the military and have punitive power. This system usually works in distant places where government institutions aren't established and people can organise each other outside the bureaucratic process.
@@justicefighter2023 nop, his goal is to project power and keep people in line. That's way most people kept their problems to eachother and solved them with the elders.
This was the case for whole of europe also. Before christianity and states. In fact here in sweden we hade a similar court system as you discribe. It is universal for all people around the world when there is no government and centralization. Perhaps this system is more effective and non corrupted.
@@MohammedYASSINE Judgement without knowledge of Islam, is like hanging on to a cliff without a safety rope! Eventually, you lack justice, which is the whole point of Islam; stand with the oppressed and speak with truth...
Most , criminal justice system is devised corruptly to earn revenue .....Justice? You get justice in the next world, in this world you have the law. - William Gaddis.
At least justice is swift under Taliban rule. Those simple cases they dealt with in this video could take years and cost millions of $ in other countries.
I live in Oregon now. Before 1998 the apartment complex I grew up in back in the Bay Area had a lot of Afghanistan kids. I’ve never known any in Oregon, but I never forgot them or their culture. This is the first time since I was a child that I’ve seen something so intimate regarding Afghan culture. I’ll be thinking about this video for a while.
We must leave the country and people to get on with their own affairs and sort themselves out, because foreign interference only sets back the justice and stability that we claim to want for them
A nationalist mindset is not open minded and it's not going to help anyone progress. If we allow every Islamist organisation or other radical organisation to turn every other country in the world into a shithole, we must expect hundreds of millions of refugees who want to live in a peaceful, open-minded world. Tackling global problems like mass migration or climate change is only possible with a global community. Not "leaving other countries to their devices".
Afghanistan was never going to abandon radical Islam the Taliban or sharia law,that's the issue. But ideally the country would not be run by such an antiquated worthless system.
Thats because that wasnt the real motivation. A certian tiny country wants its enemies wiped off the earth. They hate western nations more if you can believe it.

In “civilised” nations, the process of obtaining justice is itself a punishment. It can take years of gruelling court proceedings and a fortune in money to resolve disputes, wading through Kafkaesque bureaucracies and incomprehensible legal jargon.
This means that the mechanisms of justice are not available to the underprivileged people who can’t afford lawyers who can navigate the system on their behalf.

New Yorker should thank Taliban for letting them in. USA still has Afghanistans money frozen in federal reserves.
The fact that westerners Zionists try to oppose sharia law is because it’s against their interests.
Women rights are an excuse to keep Taliban being hated by people who follow the mainstream media.
you don’t hear media tell you: Even though USA has sanctioned and frozen most of Afghan assets, still Afghan currency did better than US dollar recently.
No, its just muslims being muslims.
Amazing cinematography and the message is delivered beautifully ❤ , An absolute masterpiece.
A 100 years ago in my village in Morocco, things were like that. People would meet in regional weekly souk (market) and discuss their cases; when they can't agree they take it to tribe leader. The tribe leader is a person who pledges allegiance to the king and controls the military and have punitive power.
This system usually works in distant places where government institutions aren't established and people can organise each other outside the bureaucratic process.
but does he have islamic knowlegde?
@@justicefighter2023 nop, his goal is to project power and keep people in line. That's way most people kept their problems to eachother and solved them with the elders.
This was the case for whole of europe also. Before christianity and states. In fact here in sweden we hade a similar court system as you discribe. It is universal for all people around the world when there is no government and centralization. Perhaps this system is more effective and non corrupted.
@@MohammedYASSINE Judgement without knowledge of Islam, is like hanging on to a cliff without a safety rope!
Eventually, you lack justice, which is the whole point of Islam; stand with the oppressed and speak with truth...
sounds like 100 years ago your tribe of neanderthals were far very behind the rest of the world.
I am happy to see truth and justice prevails all the time
@@Pierrespere-vm5oftotally wrong interpretation of Sharia law👎
idiot
Most , criminal justice system is devised corruptly to earn revenue .....Justice? You get justice in the next world, in this world you have the law. - William Gaddis.
AND EUROPE KEEPS LETTING THEM IN. CLOSE THE BORDERS
Big shout to New Yorker channel for visiting our province ❤
Real justice dont need lawyers or attorneys only if the person is disabled and can't speak for him/herself
One thing ive always loved about traveling is that no matter what country you go to... Birds sing
Even the bird was caged here. No singing.
In cages.
The woman rights were respected and justice was on her side, wait what!
At least justice is swift under Taliban rule. Those simple cases they dealt with in this video could take years and cost millions of $ in other countries.
no BS , quick and direct to the point justice
This was shot so beautifully with the light and shadows and the facial expressions...
It’s like watching people before the wheel was invented
Well as he said in the beginning, every country has their own set of laws...let it be.
I live in Oregon now. Before 1998 the apartment complex I grew up in back in the Bay Area had a lot of Afghanistan kids. I’ve never known any in Oregon, but I never forgot them or their culture. This is the first time since I was a child that I’ve seen something so intimate regarding Afghan culture. I’ll be thinking about this video for a while.
We must leave the country and people to get on with their own affairs and sort themselves out, because foreign interference only sets back the justice and stability that we claim to want for them
But all the west tried to do was give Afghanistan democracy.... I'm joking of course
A nationalist mindset is not open minded and it's not going to help anyone progress. If we allow every Islamist organisation or other radical organisation to turn every other country in the world into a shithole, we must expect hundreds of millions of refugees who want to live in a peaceful, open-minded world. Tackling global problems like mass migration or climate change is only possible with a global community. Not "leaving other countries to their devices".
Afghanistan was never going to abandon radical Islam the Taliban or sharia law,that's the issue. But ideally the country would not be run by such an antiquated worthless system.
What about when they come to EU? Should we leave them to "get on with their own affairs and sort themselves out"?
Thats because that wasnt the real motivation. A certian tiny country wants its enemies wiped off the earth. They hate western nations more if you can believe it.
cinematography of this documentary is amazing.
No wonder the people of Afghanistan welcomed Taliban with open arms!!
